Pre-Employment Assessments

Based on the unique patient population and challenges in each job, you are required to pass a health assessment as a condition of employment. Your offer of employment is contingent upon successful completion of pre-employment screenings, including but not limited to background checks, education and employment verifications, licensure verification and health assessment.

Your Offer of Employment is contingent upon successful completion of the following:

1. New Teammate Onboarding in CORE Connect – Access your new teammate onboarding checklist tasks.
2. Health Assessment – Know what to expect at your new teammate health assessment, including the paperwork you may need to bring with you.
   • Note: You may be required to take your teammate badge photograph at that time. 
3. Background Check

You will receive a communication upon successful completion of all pre-employment requirements to confirm your Orientation date.

Before Your Appointments

• Prior to your Health Assessment, complete the following tasks in CORE Connect:
  • Complete the online I-9 Form 
  • Complete your Health History form
• The in-person Health Assessment may take up to 1.5 hours each to complete
• Be on time to your appointments. Rescheduling of these appointments may delay your Orientation date
• Do not bring children to your appointment. If a child is brought to an appointment, for his/her safety and well-being, your appointment will be rescheduled for a later time, which could delay your Orientation date
• Take time to review the Orientation page, so you are prepared for your day of new teammate orientation.

1. New Teammate Onboarding in CORE Connect
